mykonos - Paros - Naxos

Not necessarily in that order. Arriving 9am in Ath, May 05. Which island do you suggest to visit first upon arrival in ATH? The last island we will go to is Santorini, then ferry back to Athens. When we arrived in ATH, the ferries are all gone in am, next one isn't until 5:30pm. Exactly how long is the ferry ride?

Also need suggestions for Oia - the one I love are above my price range - looking under $140.00 US. I love a good view of the caldera.

Thanks so much.

Take the express bus from the airport directly to Rafina port so you can get a fast ferry to Mykonos which will only take about 2 hours. From there take the fast ferry to Paros, and when you're ready to go to Naxos you can take the larger conventional Blue Star ferry at noon. When you're ready to go to Santorini take the same Blue Star at 1:00. Other ferries are also available.

For Oia check the websites of Strogili Houses, Rimida Villas, Filotera Villas, Villa Kallisti, Lena's House, Aris Caves, Villa Marina and Old Oia Houses.

All I see on fast ferries to Mykonos are am, next time is 5:30pm. Should we go to Santorini first? Thanks for info on hotels in Oia.

You might want to check with Aegean Airlines and Athens Airways. I noticed today that they still have some cheap tickets for sale to Santorini for May 5.
